Obama was using so much hope power that I was getting bailout spam telling me of all the money people wanted to give me long before anything went up for a vote in congress. Maybe I should change some of my view on ‘The One’

Nigerian money scams are old news. The new hotness is Kenyan money scams. Watch out for people claiming to be the son of a Kenyan dignitary, who then tell you they have some important office over here, and would like to give you some kind of bail out. The trick is, they steal it all back and more in small increments over the next four years.
This isn’t racist is it?

Missleading; When I saw the title Bailout Spam I thought the futue of caned “squirls,possum,and mice” was uncertain.

The REAL test of this scam. er, assistance to Africa is if the Magic Bullet and George Foreman Grill is included, all delivered by the Shamwow guy.

That sounds even more logical and honest than the “stimulus” bill passed through congress.

UNEBO is OBENU spelled backwards which is OBAMA in Nigerian!

Are you positive the e-mail isn’t authentic? That Yahoo e-mail address just screams “legitimate” to me.
I think you should reply with all of your band and credit card information just to be sure. Not that that is my e-mail address or anything….

Clara Smith is an odd romanization of Ban Ki-Moon. Maybe it’s new math.

Aparently this email is actually authentic. Dan Rather just told me so.

Can you forward to the poor McNuggets nitwit? She needs the funds far more than you, Frank! She got jobbed to the tune of $2.00 and would certainly appreciate an opportunity to deal with uneconomicsbailout@yahoo.com! Just trying to help those less fortunate with a bit of Hope and Change…

UNEBO is an anagram for BONE U.

This has to be at least as legitimate as any other un program, right?
